The Lunch Box

*Originally written: May 23, 2014* Hungry wolves scan through the desert, in search for anything edible. At the sight of food, they run sticking their tongues out hoping to get the biggest share of the pack. A humorous account of college lunch break chaos. I describe bringing lunch daily, expecting peaceful meals but instead encountering aggressive food-sharing dynamics among classmates named Shilpa, Sushma, Sachin, and Gurman. While some snatch containers and run, others compliment the meal's appearance before it disappears. By lunch's end, the lunch is gone, and so are the wolves. The container so thoroughly cleaned that someone just licked it completely.
